Here is the opinion:
An excerpt:
We reverse the trial court’s decision. Any challenge to tribal court jurisdiction raises two questions. First, does the Lummi Nation Code of Laws empower the court to hear the subject mailer of the suit and exercise personal jurisdiction over the parties? Second, does federal law restrict what the Lummi Code authorizes? We conclude that the Lummi Code authorizes the court to exercise personal and subject matter jurisdiction over this lawsuit and that federal law does not forbid it. Because the internal disagreement in MyTribe TV involves a Lummi Tribal member, a LLC registered to do business on the Reservation, and proceeds from Lummi contracts, Lummi Nation courts have jurisdiction to adjudicate these claims.
